THE MELROSE RECORD.

The parties opposed to free school
requested the aid OF the county sheriff
to protect them while they voted down
the rights of American citizens. On
Saturday evening last Deputy Sheriff

occasion to call on sheriffs or officers
of the law to protect them. The
law abiding citizen is safe. But law
breakers must look out.

point and whatsoever takes advantage
of the opportunity will meet with
success.

lie schools were outnumbered again.
The vote as declared by the judges of
election being 1874 in favor of propo-
sition to extend the term of school,
and I44 against it. Of the legal votes
on plain, white paper 124 were in
favor of, and 2 against the school; and
of the l42 illegal votes on ruled pa
per all were against the school.
The judge of the District court will
now be called upon to decide the re-
suit of the election, and in the mean
time the friends of free schools
throughout the state can consider how
near to them this issue may soon be
brought by the enemies of the public
school system.
The foregoing statement was pre-
pared by committee appointed at a
large meeting of legal voters of the
district, and its publication requested
in the county papers, and also in the
daily papers of St. Paul and Mime

A terrible accident, the worst in its
results in the annals of American
railroading, occurred near Chatsworth,
H., on the Peoria and Western road
on Friday last. An excursion train
of fifteen coaches on the way to Mia
CARA Falls, ran upon a small wooden
bridge which was burning, the bridge
gave way, piling the cars into mar
row gorge, killing more than a hun
dred persons and seriously injuring
three times as many more. Fortu.
nately the cars did not take fire. The
origin of the FIRE is supposed to be
from burning grass, although it is
suggested that robbers fired the bridge
and deliberately wrecked the train,
as the living and the dead were ruth,
lessly plundered. The details OF the
accident are heart sickening.

Origin of Blue Writing Paper.
From the London Press Netcs.

A singular story is recorded concerning
the origin of blue-tinted paper now so much
in vogue for commercial uses. The wife OF
an English paper manufacturer named Viii
liam East, going into the factory on the
domestic wash day with an old-fashioned
blue-bag in her hand, accidentally let the
bag and its contents fall into vat full of
pulp. She thought nothing of the incident,
and said nothing about it either to her hus-
band or his workmen. Great was the as
tonishment of the latter when the paper
turned out peculiar blue color, while
the master was vexed at what he
regarded as gross carelessness on the
part of some of the hands. his WIFE
wise woman-kept her own council.
The lot of paper was regarded as
unsaleable and was stored for four years
At length East consigned it to his London
correspondent with Instructions to sell 1t
for what it would bring. The unlucky
paper was accepted as a happily designed
novelty and was disposed of III open market
at a considerable advance in price. Judge
Mr. East's surprise when he received from
his agent an order for large invoice of the
despised blue paper Here was a pretty
dilemma: he was totally ignorant of the
manner in which the paper had become blue
in color, and in his perplex1ty mennoned
the matter to his wife. She promptly en-
lightened her lord ne in turn kept the SIM
ME process secret and was for mo1y years

Speaking of travelling on Sunday, am

Colquitt, father of Senator Colquitt He
was Methodist preacher, and a good one,
too. He used to go to the courts on Sun
day, and to ease his conscience, he always
stopped if he came across a church on his
way, and sometimes preached. On one oc-
casion he stopped at a Hardshell Baptist
church. When he went in the preacher
was belaboring the different denominations
other than his own He at length
got to the Methodists (of course
He said they remind I'd him of a tree frog.

and then got on another limb above and
they say higher, and thus they go on till
they get to the top, ann down they come
kerfiop, and, brethren, that's what they call
falling from grace When he was done he
said If there was anybody present that
wanted to speak he'd be glad to hear
from them. Judge Colquitt arose and
thanked him for the privilege of speak
ing; said the brothers illustration, of
the true frog reminded him of another sort
of frog in Southern Georgia. You might
walk along beside creek and shake bush
and you'd hear something go kerdip as it
struck the water, and seemed to say, as it
went under safe Then after while you'd
see the same frog crawling out on a rock i'll
the middle of the stream, and changing his
voice, he would say, "Gim-me the jug-gim-

The Baptist brother admitted that the
Judge got him on the frog story.
